devices. RF interference might cause malfunctioning of such electronic devices and
other problems. Special tips must be paid near the following equipment: hearing aids,
pace makers and other medical electronic devices, fire detectors, automatic doors and
other automatic control installations. To find out the effect of mobile phones on a
pacemaker or other pieces of electronic medical equipment please contact the
manufactures or local sales agents of the equipment.
 Please do not subject the LCD to impact or use the screen to strike things, as this will
damage the LCD board and cause leakage of the liquid crystal. There is a risk of
blindness if the liquid crystal substance gets into the eyes. If this occurs rinse eyes
immediately with clear water (under no circumstances rub your eyes) and seek
immediate medical treatment.
 Do not dissemble or modify your mobile phone, as it will lead to damage to the phone
such as battery leakage or circuitry failure. Any tampering with the device can lead to

cards as the radiation waves of the mobile phone may erase the information stored on
floppy disks, pay cards and credit cards.
 Please keep small metal objects, such as thumbtacks far away from the receiver. When
the receiver is in use it becomes magnetic and may attract these small metal objects
and thus these may cause injury or damage the mobile phone.
 Do not expose the device to liquids, such as water. If liquids enter the phone, this could
cause a short circuit, battery leakage or other malfunction. Liquid damage renders
warranty void.

1.3.3 Notices when using battery

leak, overheat, crack and catch fire.
 If the liquid in the batteries goes into the eyes, there is a risk of blindness. It this occurs
do not rub the eyes, but immediately rinse eyes with clear water and go to the hospital
for treatment.
 Please do not disassemble or modify the battery, as this will cause the battery to leak,
overheat, crack and catch fire.
 Please do not use or place the batteries near high temperature places such as near a
fire or heating vessel as this will cause the battery to leak, overheat, crack and catch
fire.
 If the battery overheats, changes color or becomes distorted during use, charging or
storage, please stop using and replace it with a new battery.
 If the liquid from the battery comes in contact with skin or clothing this could cause
burning of the skin. Immediately use clear water to rinse and seek medical tips if
necessary.
 If the battery leaks or gives off a strange odor, please remove the battery from the
vicinity of the open fire to avoid a fire or explosion.
